If your car blows A LOT of white smoke out the tailpipe and it smells sweet, your coolant is probably seeping into the motor through a leak in the head gasket. Check the inside of your oil cap for whitish sludge - this indicates coolant in the oil and usually verifies a head gasket leak.
wash it out quickly, bugs carry germs that could kill you
Yes, antifreeze can leak from a water pump gasket.
Well, you could get a tummy ache or you might choke so...I suggest you don't do that. :)
Antifreeze is composed of mainly ethylene glycol or propylene glycol, both of which are combustible. So yes, antifreeze IS combustible. However, neither of these compounds is very easily ignited. But although it is HIGHLY unlikely that antifreeze could start a fire, antifreeze could be dangerous if it actually gets hot enough to burn (such as in an ongoing structure fire).
out the tail pipe
if it rear air and heat it could be the line carring the antifreeze tho the back heater core.
Thermostats determine when antifreeze enters the main cooling system. If the thermostat isn't working correctly, the antifreeze could enter the engine to late, (or not at all) resulting in an over heating engine. Another problem of having antifreeze enter the engine late, is that if your engine is very hot, possibly a little warmer than common, when the antifreeze enters the engine, the cold fluid could cause the engine block to cool down quickly, causing a cracked engine block.
Could be oil mixing with antifreeze indicating a bad head gasket Are you losing motor oil?
Antifreeze could be running out often due to a leak. It is important to inspect the radiator for small cracks or smoke.
It definitely isn't good if a cat drinks antifreeze. Even a small amount could damage the cat's organs and possibly give it mental problems. Antifreeze contains ammonia, so naturally attracts animals as it smells like another animal's urine. An animal will naturally sniff or perhaps lick liquids containing ammonia. It is also said that it may taste sweet as well. If you have antifreeze, I advise you keep it sealed tight and out of reach of animals and children. A moderate amount of antifreeze could kill a cat or dog. In fact, this is a big killer of animals.
check the antifreeze sensor as it could of been damage. or there could be some sort of air in betweenthe antifreeze hoese
Could be a few things. Does it leak antifreeze? if so, fix the part that leaks. If not, you could have coolant mixing with oil inside the engine, which burns it. check your spark plugs. If they are white, you are probably burning antifreeze - fix immediately. your exhaust will smell "sweet" as well if you are burning antifreeze.
